Align the wings of the plastic filter with
the slots in the cloth filter and twist in a

handle until it “clicks” firmly into position.
IMPORTANT: Maximum dust collection
will only be obtained with a clean filter and
an empty dust bowl. If dust begins to fall
back out of the product after it is switched
off, this indicates that the bowl is full and
requires emptying.
Wash the filters regularly using warm, soapy
water and ensure that they are completely
dry before using again. The cleaner the filter
is, the better the product will perform.
It is very important that the filter is
correctly in position before use.

months and whenever worn or damaged.
